SUMMARY:Heather Maloney with high Tea
DESCRIPTION:The Massachusetts-based “writer song-singer” found music in the midst of three years at a meditation center\, honing a sound moored in days of silent reflection and reverence for storytellers like Joni\, Rilke\, Ken Burns\, and the anonymous authors of Zen parables. And while she eventually traded the quiet\, structured life as a yogi for the kinetic life a touring musician\, the core of her songwriting remains centered around same curiosity about our inner world and the desire to articulate it through storytelling. She now has eight studio album releases under her belt\, each one marked by inspiring collaborations with musicians\, songwriters and producers. \nOn Heather’s 2019 album\, Soil In The Sky\, her “ability to channel emotion is radical” (PopMatters) and the tracks are stacked with special guests who help her deliver an immense range of sound and sentiment in 12 songs; there’s a duet with Dawes front-man Taylor Goldsmith on the Walt Whitman-inspired love song “We Were Together”\, an appearance by Rachael Price on the album’s opening track “Enigma”\, and Jay Ungar lends his legendary folk fiddle to “Oklahoma Lullaby”\, a song inspired by Ken Burns’ documentary The Dustbowl. (Ungar composed Ashokan Farewell in Burns’ The Civil War). The all-star band includes drummer Griffin Goldsmith (Dawes)\, and multiple members of the Amos Lee band. \nThe Bluegrass Situation called her 2015 release\, Making Me Break (produced by Band of Horses’ Bill Reynolds) “an intoxicating blend that captures the sonic texture of indie rock\, the humanity of folk and the spirituality of a Rumi poem.” \nIn 2014 she released “Woodstock”\, her collaborative effort with Boston quartet Darlingside\, which drew praise from the New York Times and Graham Nash. \nHeather’s songs have played on NPR stations across the country and her live appearances have aired on syndicated programming like eTown and AudioTree. Her song “Nightstand Drawer” was used in the season finale of the CBS TV series “Elementary”\, and her songs have also been featured on a number of editorial Spotify playlists & Starbucks’ in-store nationwide playlists. \nAs well as a songwriter and performer\, Heather is an illustrator and linocut artist who carves and prints visual representations of her songs on a variety of mediums. She considers the integration music and art to be an inspiring new chapter as a creative\, and while most of her growing catalog is reserved for her Patreon community\, she periodically releases limited-edition prints to accompany albums and singles. \nHeather has toured throughout the US & Canada as a headliner and also in support of acts including Lake Street Dive\, Shakey Graves\, Gary Clark Jr.\, Rodrigo y Gabriela\, Colin Hay (Men at Work)\, Mary Chapin Carpenter\, Shawn Colvin\, Dar Williams and many more. https://www.heathermaloney.com/bio \nHIGH TEA: High Tea\, the indie-folk duo hailing from Boston MA\, has been touring with Heather Maloney. Guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Isabella DeHerdt and vocalist/ percussionist Isaac Eliot\, High Tea is a concoction of sweepingly soulful harmonies\, guitar riffs to knock your socks off\, and a refreshing blend of old blues and new pop.

SUMMARY:Andrew Duhon
DESCRIPTION:It was Leo Tolstoy who said “All great literature is one of two stories; a man goes on a journey or a stranger comes to town\,” and in the case of Andrew Duhon and his latest album Emerald Blue\, both instances are true. Duhon temporarily left New Orleans\, his longtime home and musical muse in 2019\, finding himself inspired by the landscape of the Pacific Northwest and notably\, its colors—a hue he describes as ‘emerald blue’ for which the album is named\, the same shade looking back at him in his partner’s eyes. Had he overlooked the specific shade of her eyes while living below sea level? Or did the change of location open his mind more acutely? The record does just that: examine the familiar in the context of the unfamiliar. Emerald Blue is a probing appreciation of the dailiness of life; a note-taking exercise in living. \nDuhon channeled his new perspective into an eleven song collection\, calling on friends and collaborators including Jano Rix on drums\, percussion\, and harmonies; Myles Weeks on upright and electric basses and harmonies; and Dan Walker on keys and accordion. Duhon returned South for the recording process\, finding comfort and creativity in Maurice\, Louisiana’s storied Dockside Studios with GRAMMY-award winning engineer and longtime collaborator of Andrew’s\, Trina Shoemaker\, to capture every inch of vibe and beauty and texture each song had to offer. \nEmerald Blue in the news: \n“Andrew Duhon looks for a better balance to life on new ‘Emerald Blue’” via Gambit Weekly \nDuhon muses on the kindness of strangers and fly fishing for Coastal Angler \n“Faintly reminiscent of early M Ward and artists like Beachwood Sparks\, Bonnie “Prince” Billy\, Sparklehorse or Damien Jurado\, ‘Emerald Blue’ sits happily at the crossroads of harmony-drenched pop\, rustic americana\, Appalachian folk and about a half-dozen other styles\, all meeting and mixing around the warmth of Duhon’s vocals; world-weary\, stretched and full of soul.” –Holler \nDuhon is “a teller of stories with an undeniable voice\, weighted and soulful.” –KPCW/NPR \nNo Depression calls the album “effortless\,” noting “Duhon reminds us that everything comes in its time: adventure\, loneliness\, tragedy and — yes\, even if it’s fleeting — contentment.” \nFans can watch the music video for “Emerald Blue” at this link\, check out previously-released singles “Everybody Colored Their Own Jesus” and “Castle On Irish Bayou.” Duhon’s tour picks back up tonight in Lafayette\, LA before continuing throughout the Southeast and then over to the Pacific Northwest in late summer. A full list of dates and ticket information can be found below. \n

DESCRIPTION:Wide Open Spaces plays “bluegrass without borders”\, using bluegrass instrumentation to play a wide range of music\, with genres from the Kentucky hills to Celtic and Caribbean isles with overtones of Alison Krauss\, Claire Lynch\, Kate Wolf\, Bill Monroe\, Newgrass Revival and the Beatles. \nFEATURING: \nPeter Anick – Vocals\, Mandolin and Fiddle\nMatt Carlen – Guitar\, Vocals\nMarie (Mud) Rocheleau-Demers – Vocals\, Guitar\nJeffrey Horton (Mansfield’s own!)– Bass\, Vocals\nPaul Wolf – Drums\, Percussion \nCombining the traditional sounds of fiddle\, banjo\, mandolin\, guitar and bass with modern song writing\, jazzy rock-edged arrangements and tight three-part harmonies\, they take audiences on a musical joy ride that has some people saying: “I can’t believe that’s bluegrass!” Anything can happen – and usually does. \nThe band’s debut CD is entitled “Fiddletown”\, drawing the name from the Pete Anick original that starts the compilation of 14 songs\, 13 of which are original Wide Open Spaces’ compositions. \nThe ‘Spaces’ are comprised of former members of the newgrass stew pot known as Acoustic Planet\, the bluegrass wunderkinds The Fogg Brothers\, Marie of the famed acoustic folk duo\, Chuck and Mud\, and our most recent acquisition\, RI Bluegrass Hall of Famer Jeff Horton\, who brings 40 years of bluegrass experience as an alumni of Northern Lights and the infamous Neon Valley Boys. \nWhether you prefer beautiful Celtic fiddle reels\, rockin’ guitar solos\, Beatle-esque and Alison Krauss style harmonies – or original songs sometimes reminiscent of Jimmy Buffet\, Dave Brubeck\, and Doyle Lawson – come join the Spaces for an evening of good-humored musical alchemy.

The Ramblers draw their material primarily from Andrew’s original songs which are rooted in the slower\, dreamier side of indie-folk\, blues\, Americana and bluegrass.  Andrew Innes (Acoustic Guitar & Vocals) has been studying and performing music for almost 40 years. Andrew started at the age of 16 with harmonica and piano\, and then picked up saxophone in his senior year of high school. Over the years Andrew has fronted various jazz groups on alto and tenor saxophones; played washboard\, musical saw and harmonica with the wonderful NYC-based bluegrass/western swing band\, The Bootleg Remedy.  Andrew played saxophone and harmonica with indie-chamber pop supergroup Champale (featuring members of Clem Snide\, Luna & Nada Surf) and spent two years in the house band for the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus. He performed for many years with Uncle Jimmy’s Dirty Basement\, a provocatively unlikely collaboration between Henson-level puppeteers and an avant-garde rock band and added musical saw\, saxophones and accordion to the cinematic soundscapes of the instrumental band\, Anchor Tattoo. In recent years Andrew has shifted his primary focus to guitar\, dobro\, singing\, and songwriting and can be seen in the Boston area fronting the Reluctant Ramblers\, playing with the AKE Trio\, and accompanying singer-songwriter Carla Ryder. Check out www.weescotsman.com to sign up for Andrew’s email list and find out about upcoming shows. \nEric Smalley (Upright bass) and Kim Patch (Fiddle) play with many groups in the Boston area including The Rozzicats\, Louder Than Milk\, Creek River String Band & the Bookmatch Duo. Tim Obetz (Pedal Steel) has performed and recorded with many musicians and bands in the Boston-area including Buffalo Tom\, Will Dailey\, Terry Kitchen\, Buttercup\, and The Pineapple Ranch Hands. \nFirst Church and Parish Dedham Unitarian Universalist was first gathered in 1638 and is located in Dedham Center at 670 High Street. Its lively music program includes choir at Sunday services\, the Parish Players theater troupe\, and the Concerts at First Church Saturday classical concert series\, in addition to our Friday Folk Coffeehouse events.

If the weather is horrid\, we will move indoors and capacity will be limited to 30. The suggested contribution is $20\, payable at the door by cash\, check\, or Venmo. Send email to whalecoveproductions@gmail.com to get more information or to make a reservation. \nThe Rough & Tumble\, a dynamic duo comprised of Mallory Graham and Scott Tyler\, have been captivating audiences with their unique blend of dumpster-folk and thrift store-Americana for over a decade. The Pennsylvania-born Graham and Central California’s Tyler have a knack for weaving together elements of joy\, sorrow\, comedy\, and drama in their music\, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats. Now\, in 2023\, the band is set to release Only This Far\, a 12-song collection drawing from the highs and lows of their lived experiences over all those years. \nWith a smorgasbord of eclectic instruments and a stunning blend of harmonious vocals\, the band has crafted a work of profound emotional depth with this new album. The songs are a symphony of raw\, unbridled emotion\, weaving together tales of love\, loss\, and longing with a deft touch that could only be crafted by these two songwriters who have quite literally lived on the road for the better part of a decade. It’s a true testament to the band’s unwavering dedication to their craft.

SUMMARY:Side-splitting Silliness with Deb Seymour & Stan Lyness at PCA
DESCRIPTION:WESTFORD\, MA: Join two of the funniest songwriters you’ll ever know for an evening of satire\, parody and silliness!  The duo of Deb Seymour and Stan Lyness will be taking the stage at the Parish Center for the Arts\, 10 Lincoln Street on May 27 at 7pm (Doors open 6:30pm). For ticket reservations and more information\, visit pcawestford.org. \nHow exactly does one sum up the whimsical songwriter Deb Seymour? According to a fan\, “Joni Mitchell meets Lucille Ball.” Deb Seymour writes songs that tickle your funny bone and pull at your heart strings. She is a master musical storyteller whose songs range from hitch-hiking chickens and tango-dancing Martians to blues-influenced torch songs. She plays at wineries\, festivals\, house concerts\, cafes and listening rooms. Deb is a skilled\, award-winning guitarist and singer who counts four albums of original material (currently working on the 5th). She also simulcasts her popular livestream\, “Brunch w/Deb” on her Facebook and YouTube channels every Sunday\, whether on the road or not. Her fans call themselves “Deb-Heads” and tune in from the USA\, Canada\, UK\, Germany\, Israel and Australia. \nPlaying alongside Deb is musician and satirist Stan Lyness\, a Boston-area songwriter with an unshakeable faith that\, at its core\, the universe is funny and can be forced to rhyme. Stan will leave you between stitches and tears with his witty repartee and sardonic humor. He was first moved to write by an excruciatingly dull high school social studies class\, and has ever since taken up the pen whenever things get slow. He now finds himself in “an enormously productive period.” \nSit\, chat\, sing and laugh ‘til your sides ache during Seymour & Lyness’ fun concert at the Parish Center for the Arts (PCA)\, located at 10 Lincoln Street on Westford Common. Bring your own food and drink for a complete evening of entertainment. Limited cabaret-style seating. Doors open at 6:30pm; show begins at 7pm. For tickets and more information\, call (978) 692-6333\, visit pcawestford.org or visit them on Facebook. \nDirect Ticket Link: https://parisharts.square.site/product/deb-seymour-and-stan-lyness/84 \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParishCenterfortheArts
